Might be hard to assemble the functional part of a phone inside of a crystal, and you can't bake the whole thing because silicon isn't surviving 2000oC for 2 days.
Yeah, but it was a lot harder to make regular aluminum back in the day as well.
Increasing ductility isn't impossible, but it probably is unlikely in this case.
But two halves that get glued/sealed together permanently would be possible.
